la patience a payé pour Bordeaux face à Metz
And as in the Cup, only qualification is good, this 3-0 against a team from a lower division is the delight of a whole group and striker Melissa Gomes, author of two achievements: “It was a long time to come but the qualification objective is met. But it was not easy to find spaces in this solid defense which prevented all offensive solutions. We then settled into a false rhythm with difficulties in passing the ball. But we were able to adapt in the second period by shaking up this Metz team a little more. We were able to score at the right time. I scored two goals, it feels good personally but it also allowed the team to get off to a good start for this match and to recover after our heavy defeat in the league at Reims (6-1). Mentally, it’s ideal. »
Without panicking
Faced with a Lorraine team determined to bide their time with a defense of five, the Bordeaux women who lined up with a rear guard made up of three elements encountered great difficulties. The spaces are reduced for a Gironde team in breakdown of offensive inspiration. Result, two small attempts in one half, signed Gomes (13th) then (16th) whose shot is stopped on his line by a Messin defender. And then that’s all.
